HF from the caravan

Got another USB to serial converter from Maplin in Llandudno and set up a small HF antenna on the caravan. Using the 'long wire balun' and about 7 metres of wire.
Noisy 4 amp 12 volt PSU (bought off Ebay to power a TV) that I was using to run the FT-817 made it impossible to receive anything though.
